Abstract

This study explores pre-service teachers’ experiences integrating SMART Board technology into their teaching practice. The results suggest that pre-service teachers found the technology mentoring process to be useful in preparing them to integrate instructional technology into their lessons. The pre-service teachers developed high interest in integrating SMART board technology within their own practice. They also reported the technology mentoring process to be useful in preparing them to integrate instructional technology into their teaching. This article highlights the need for teacher educators to create a better curriculum aimed at preparing teachers who can selectively, purposely, and effectively integrate appropriate educational technologies into classroom instruction.
